Smokey Road Parade  -  @ 06:00:00
Saturday, 12 December 2009, was the annual parade down Smokey Road in Crawford. This year Queen Lewis took over the directorship from Delbra Favors and the route of the parade was reversed, but otherwise it was the usual event. Mostly Fire Engines, Ambulances, Rescue, Sheriff, Muscle Cars and an odd float or two. There was an empty Athens Transit bus towards the end of this year’s parade.

The local Fire Departments of Crawford, Arnoldsville, Devils Pond, Beaverdam, and Wolfskin each brought a pumper. I was unable to identify the second pumper in line. It was probably a second Crawford pumper but my apologies to another department if was theirs. Josh Adams rode the back of the Wolfskin pumper. Brian Mixon drove and Jack Adams and I were passengers.
